This is due ; to an unusually busy spell here at FC. After the holidays, the ; FOTD will return to its almost-every-day schedule. ; ; Today's image shows what a person would see surrounding him if ; he stationed himself at the center of a Julia spiral. (In this ; case, the spiral is one of those associated with Seahorse Valley ; of the Mandelbrot set.) As he looked around, he would see a ; wall of rings in all directions. If his view were unwrapped and ; projected onto a flat screen, it would appear as today's image, ; which is part of a periodic larger image. This larger image is ; periodic because the 'exp' function shows what he would see if ; he continued rotating his view indefinitely. ; ; Don't shuffle the kids away. The name "Kinky Corner" refers to ; the small kink in the lower left corner. ; ; The image has been stretched about three times in the vertical ; direction to make the straightened-out spiral arms more apparent. ; ; Since the interest is purely mathematical, I could not give the ; image a rating. The question mark indicates the uncertainty. ; ; Unfortunately for those with limited time, the image is a slow ; one, taking 11 minutes to finish. The good news is that the web ; sites are there to make fractal life easier. ; ; The image may be viewed without the need to calculate it by ; visiting the official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Variations are posted in high-definition at: ; ; ; ; The FOTD back images are at: ; ; ; ; Cloudy periods alternated with sunny periods here at Fractal ; Central today, while the temperature of 43F +6C was close to ; normal. The fractal cats had an average day of it, as did the ; humans. The next FOTD will be posted in a day or two. ; ; Until whenever, take care, and which is more likely to be in two ; different places at the same time, a Christian saint in a state ; of bilocation or an electron in its wave aspect? (Both things ; are apparently impossible, yet both are claimed to be true.) ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Kinky_Corner { ; time=0:11:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=slices.frm formulaname=JuliaFNZ function=exp passes=1 center-mag=-5.62965/12.738/0.5560629/0.3862/-95/0 params=2/0/-0.5010419796557/0.0152933866127/-0.751\ 85195471/0.030619434187 float=y maxiter=2450 inside=0 logmap=-777 periodicity=0 colors=0000Xd0Ye0Zf0_g0`h0ai1bj2ck3dl4em5fn6go7hp8\ iq9jr9iq9iq9hp9ho9go9fnAfmAemAelAdlAckAcjAbjBbiBah\ B`hB`gB_fB_fBZeBYeCYdCXcCXcCWbCVaCVaCU`DU_DT_DSZDS\ ZDRYDRXDQXDPWEPVEOVEOUENTEMTEMSELSFLRFKQFJQFJPFIOF\ IOFHNDILEHMFHMFHNGHNGHOHHOIHPIHPJHQJHQKHRKHRLHRMHS\ MHSNHTNHTOHUPHUPHVQHVQHWRHWRHWSHXTHXTHYUHYUHZVHZWH\ _WH_XH`XH`YHaYHaZGa_Gb_Gb`Gc`GcaGdbGdbGecGecGfdGfd\ GfeGgfGgfGhgGhgGihGiiGjiGjjGkjGkkGlkGllGlmGmmGmnGn\ nGnoGopGopGpqGpqGqrGqvDxtEusFsrGqqHopImnJkmKhlLfkM\ djNbhO`gPZfQXeRUdSSbTQaUO`VM_WKZXHXYFWZDV_BU`9Ta7T\ c4Sb5Sb5Rb5Rb5Ra5Qa6Qa6Qa6P`6P`6P`6O`7O`7O_7N_7N_7\ M_8MZ8MZ8LZ8LZ8LZ8KY9KY9KY9JY9JX9JX9IXAIXAIXAHWAHW\ AGWBGWBGVBFVBFVBFVBEUCEUCEUCDUCDUCDTCCTDCTDBTDBSDB\ SDASEASEASE9RE9RE9RE8RF8QF8QF7QF7QF3TG5SF6RF7QF8QF\ 9PFBOECOEDNEEMEFMEHLEIKDJKDKJDLIDNIDOHDPGCQFCRFCTE\ CUDCVDCWCBXBBZBB_AB`9Ba9B } frm:JuliaFNZ {; Jim Muth b=p1, z=p2+fn1(pixel), c=p3: z=z^(b)+c, |z| <= 16 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
